Faced with Martin Davis' rejection, Kang Jianfei asked back: Since that's the case, why did you invite me to the United States, Mr. Davis?
Two purposes, Martin Davis said, the first is to hope you will become one of the members of Paramount shareholders' meeting, and the second is that Paramount wants to take over your Oriental DreamWorks.
Kang Jianfei instantly understood what Martin Davis thought that the other party saw that DreamWorks was developing well and that Kang Jianfei had great skills in making movies, so he wanted Kang Jianfei to participate in Paramount's decision, and at the same time he wanted to spend money to acquire DreamWorks or acquire some equity in DreamWorks.
Haixi Industrial Company is very unique. It started out in traditional industries, but it likes to invest in the cultural and entertainment industry. Kang Jianfei's Dream Factory is obviously favored by others.
Kang Jianfei felt very funny. He was obviously here to acquire Paramount, but now Martin Davis has set his mind on his DreamWorks.
Mr. Davis, do you think I'll sell DreamWorks that are already on track?Kang Jianfei asked with a smile.
Martin Davis curled his lips and said: I was not sure before, so I want to talk to you.But since you tamed the fierce horse of Red Chili, I believe you will definitely not sell your company.
Kang Jianfei asked back: Then what else can we talk about?
Martin Davis said: Equity exchange, exchange shares of Paramount and DreamWorks at an 8-to-1 ratio.
In terms of market value alone, the price proposed by Martin Davis is not only very fair, but also makes Kang Jianfei take a big advantage.
But don't forget that Paramount is a listed company, and DreamWorks is Kang Jianfei's personal asset. With DreamWorks' operating performance over the years, once it is listed, the stock price will rise.
For Kang Jianfei, making movies is his main business, while for Martin Davis and the Haixi Company behind him, making movies is just a side job.
Companies like DreamWorks that are on track are actually not the best investment choice, but the development momentum of Hong Kong films is really too strong now, and the box office in East Asia has even surpassed Hollywood films. Even Martin Davis is moved by the profits in this area.
However, Hollywood movies began to have bottlenecks, which had to be truly breakthrough until the computer special effects were improved in the 1990s and the business methods of the big entertainment group emerged. In the end, Hollywood blockbusters relied on this to sweep the world.
Moreover, the US economy has been in recession for several consecutive years. Martin Davis's Haixi Industrial Co., Ltd. has suffered a considerable loss in this stock market crash, so naturally he wants to rely on other investments to increase profit points.
These reasons combined led to Martin Davis' decision to exchange Paramount's equity for DreamWorks' equity.
Any boss of a Hong Kong film company would be ecstatic to agree to the suggestion put forward by Martin Davis.
But Kang Jianfei, a guy who even had to take over the woman he had been with, had long regarded DreamWorks as his personal property. It would be fine to exchange for a few percent of the equity, but he wouldn't do it if it exceeded 20%.
According to Martin Davis, 20% of DreamWorks equity can only be exchanged for less than 3% of Paramount equity, how can Kang Jianfei accept this?
However, those people in Haixi Company do not control Paramount as personal identities. It is extremely difficult for Kang Jianfei to acquire the entire Haixi Company, which is the legal boss of Paramount.
Now Kang Jianfei has bought 8% of Paramount's shares, and they are not bought from shareholders of Haixi Company.
If you want to buy it by spending money, Kang Jianfei’s money is not as much as the Haixi Consortium. Even if you buy it, you don’t know how much money it will cost.
The best proof is that two years later, Japan's Sony spent a huge sum of $6 billion to acquire Columbia Pictures from Coca-Cola.
After half a day, Kang Jianfei didn't know how many fish he had caught, but he threw it back into the lake after he caught it.
When he packed his fishing gear and went back, Kang Jianfei walked towards the red pepper. The fierce horse that was teasing the white rose immediately became quiet and honestly asked Kang Jianfei to put the saddle on its back.
Kang Jianfei patted the horse's head and smiled: It seems that this is a smart horse that can be beaten.
Martin Davis rode his own horse and smiled: If you like, I'll give it to you.
Kang Jianfei shook his head and said: In fact, I don’t like horses.
Martin Davis said: Kang, don't refuse.No one dares to ride a red pepper except you. If I were twenty years younger, I would definitely tame it myself.
Since that's the case, I would like to thank you for your gift.
Kang Jianfei did not refuse anymore and sent him back to Hong Kong and threw him directly to the horse farm, where there was a dedicated person who would help him feed and take care of him.
If this horse has a better temper, it can still be filmed and filmed when filming costume TV and movies in the future.
Back at Martin Davis's residence, the servants had already carried out the grill, with some ingredients used for grilling next to it.
The night gradually fell, the endless pasture was silent, and a bonfire was lit in the open space. A professional barbecue chef was busy, and occasionally Kang Jianfei and the other two would do it themselves.
Kang Jianfei ate two barbecue and couldn't help asking: I'm sorry, Mr. Davis, don't your family live here?
There is nothing to be aware of. My wife has been dead for many years. Her children are all staying in big cities, but they are not used to pastures in the countryside.Martin Davis smiled.
While having barbecue, Kang Jianfei continued to talk about cooperation with Martin Davis, but the guy was only willing to sell 10% of Paramount shares held by Haixi Company, and was not willing to cooperate with Kang Jianfei in the fields of games and media.
If Martin Davis doesn’t sell it, it doesn’t mean that other shareholders of Haixi Company won’t sell it.
After staying at Martin's farm for three days, Kang Jianfei took Li Zhi to California to visit Brigitte Lin. Of course, the two women would not meet, and Li Zhi was arranged by Kang Jianfei to deal with other matters.
At this time, "Rain Man" had sold a horrible box office of US$160 million in North America, surpassing "The Fatal Temptation", the second largest box office in 1987, and sprinting towards the box office champion "Three Dads and One Child".
Among these two movies, "The Deadly Temptation" was produced by Paramount, while "Three Huts and One Baby" was produced by a film company under Universal Pictures.
Just when "Rain Man" gained both fame and fortune, there were fierce differences at the shareholders' meeting of Haixi Industrial Company.
The acquisition team that Kang Jianfei hired to form did not stop. When Kang Jianfei met with Martin Davis, they were also contacting other shareholders of Haixi Industrial Company.
Not everyone is as rich as Martin Davis. Several shareholders have suffered heavy losses in the stock market crash two months ago. In addition, Paramount's performance has declined in the past two years, so he has long wanted to sell his shares to raise money.
These people not only want to sell Paramount's shares, but even the shares of Sega Corporation of Japan. They are only interested in industrial investment. They were opposed to investing in the electronic game industry at the beginning. Now they have made several times the profits. It is time to sell for cash.
Looking at the noisy guys around him, Martin Davis felt a headache, and the final decision could only be to compromise with each other.
Kang Jianfei didn't know how the Haixi Company handled it. The reply he received was that Haixi Industrial Company was willing to sell 18% of Paramount shares to DreamWorks for a total selling price of US$1 billion.
If it were before the stock market crash, the price would be relatively reasonable, but now the stock prices of Haixi and Paramount have plummeted, so the price of Haixi Company is obviously a quarrel.
Kang Jianfei felt that Haixi sold too few shares and the price was too high, so the acquisition team could only continue negotiations.
Los Angeles, Brigitte Lin’s home.
Brigitte Lin, who had just come out of the bathroom, had a drunken fragrance on her body. She shook her wet hair, walked to the dressing table and sat down, and asked: When will you go back to Hong Kong?
Kang Jianfei used his fingers to combed Lin Qingxia's hair, held the hair dryer and said: I may have to stay for another week or two, and the matter in Taiwan is a bit confusing.
Brigitte Lin said: I heard that Feng Jiao is helping you run away?
Kang Jianfei was afraid that she would be jealous and explained: Most of the time, Yu Kanping was busy, and Feng Jiao stayed at home with her parents, and sometimes she would go to dinner with Yu Kanping.
Over the past year, Brigitte Lin occasionally takes time to go back to Hong Kong to accompany Kang Jianfei, but she is inevitably missing her little together. She said: Why don’t I go back to Taipei with you this time?I'm still a little bit embarrassed there.
Well, let's go back together when something happens here.Kang Jianfei said while blowing her hair.
Brigitte Lin asked: How confident are you to buy Paramount?
Don't worry, the shareholders of Haixi Company are not stupid. As long as I can afford the price, they will not stop selling it. Kang Jianfei said with a smile, American devils have become increasingly difficult to get along in recent years. The Japanese are clamoring to buy the entire United States. I can't lose to the little Japanese Ah.
Just talk big.Brigitte Lin laughed and scolded.
Kang Jianfei only said something ordinary. There is a reason why he is so sure to take over Paramount.
Under the detailed investigation of the acquisition team, Kang Jianfei knew that the senior management of Haixi Company and Paramount were not monotonous, and they also had many differences about Paramount's operations.
Martin Davis wanted Kang Jianfei to become Paramount's stock price. In addition to improving Paramount's operating conditions, he actually wanted to use this good news to raise Paramount's stock price.
The economic stagnation of the United States for many years has made Americans lose confidence in their own economy, but instead have confidence in companies in Asia, especially in Japan.
Once Kang Jianfei's achievements in recent years are deliberately promoted in the United States, Hong Kong funds entering Paramount will definitely be good news for investors.
After staying in the United States for more than half a month, "Rain Man" has already finished filming, and Kang Jianfei finally waited for the feedback from Haixi Company again.
"Rain Man" eventually won more than 170 million US dollars in North America, and suddenly topped the box office of North American movies in 1987, and also received multiple Golden Globe nominations.
The Hollywood Reporter gave a very high evaluation of "Rain Man": The most touching movie of the year, family affection can surpass it.Hoffmann's interpretation of autistic patients is very good, and we should pay more attention to the autistic community.
However, the American media has paid great attention to the autistic community. With the popularity of "Rain Man" in the United States, Kim Pique, the real prototype of the male protagonist (autistic patient), has also been reported by the media, and all walks of life have sent invitations to Kim Pique.
Kim Pike's father immediately took him to speak everywhere, including communities, schools, welfare institutions, hospitals...
Kim Pique's speeches can be seen everywhere, and the most touching thing is that his speeches are not subject to penny.
With the widespread attention of the society, many medical and scientific research institutions have increased their investment in autism research. Kang Jianfei also took the opportunity to let Anne Hurd announce in a high-profile manner that in the name of Oriental Film Company, $5 million from the box office of "Rain Man" was donated to scientific research institutions for autism research.
This move has brought a good reputation to Oriental Film Company, and a series of films such as "Terminator" and "Out of Africa" invested in the United States have been dug out again and were mentioned by the media. Kang Jianfei, the boss behind the scenes, was even seen in front of the public as a movie legend.
Immediately afterwards, Kang Jianfei is about to take over Paramount Pictures, one of the eight major film giants in Hollywood in the United States and ranked second in the annual box office in North America, and acquires 29% of Paramount Pictures' equity for US$1.5 billion.
Judging from Paramount's current stock price, this is a very expensive acquisition price, which is not far from Sony's acquisition of Columbia Pictures more than a year later. They were both severely robbed by the Americans.
But without spending so much money, the other party didn't sell Ah at all, so Kang Jianfei could only smile and grit his teeth and pay as a big shot.
The 8% Paramount equity acquired before was much cheaper. Together, Kang Jianfei has a total of 37% of Paramount shares, becoming the second largest shareholder of the Hollywood film giant (the largest shareholder is Haixi Industrial Company, but in fact Kang Jianfei is the shareholder with the largest individual shares).
The momentum of "Rain Man" has not disappeared before, and the media's hype about Kang Jianfei is Paramount's propaganda behavior.
When news that Kang Jianfei became Paramount's second largest shareholder came out, the second wave of publicity companies became even more fierce. The movies that Kang Jianfei invested and directed in recent years were reported clearly.
Especially on Christmas less than two months ago, the three movies invested by Kang Jianfei were sold at the same time in East Asia, North America and Europe. This news made the American people regard him as a god.
The day Kang Jianfei and Paramount officially signed the contract, Paramount's stock price rose 6%.
Two purposes, Martin Davis said, the first is to hope you will become one of the members of Paramount shareholders' meeting, and the second is that Paramount wants to take over your Oriental DreamWorks.
Kang Jianfei instantly understood what Martin Davis thought that the other party saw that DreamWorks was developing well and that Kang Jianfei had great skills in making movies, so he wanted Kang Jianfei to participate in Paramount's decision, and at the same time he wanted to spend money to acquire DreamWorks or acquire some equity in DreamWorks.
